"We should be more like Canada"

lalibertarienne:
Even I agree
You mean not rule the world?
You mean lay down and take it from your neighbor who dictates your domestic policy and tells you that your gas is guaranteed to America before your own people? Yeah, way to stand up for yourself, Canada. Also, the SPP. Canada is a joke.

Whatever you do, do not tell the U.S. Customs and...
If you do, you very well might have your laptop stolen and broken along with your hard drive, not to mention thrown in a small cell for hours and interrogated. Then, every time you cross the border, expect to get harassed.
Thankfully the ACLU has taken up this young man’s case. Here’s to hoping he gets some justice.
Unfortunately, the DHS policy (in place since 2009) is exactly what...

Glenn Greenwald tears apart NPR, shows them to be...
There’s one prime reason why Americans are so uninformed about what their government does in their name around the world (Why do they hate us?). It’s because “news stories” from “even liberal media outlets” like NPR systematically obscure those facts, disseminating pure propaganda from America’s National Security State masquerading as high-minded, Serious news.

Thank God there...

Alleged Iranian spy ring busted in Azerbaijan....
Notice how they implicate Syria and Russia by saying that the Iranian spymaster met with them int he capital cities? I’m sure this will be used as more anti-Syrian and anti-Russian propaganda. Danger Room has been doing a great job of pumping out propaganda, even claiming that Assad has chemical weapons.

Do you think your vote counts in America?
If so, I have some phenomenal ocean front property in Oklahoma for sale! Seriously though, electronic voting fraud has turned the United States system of “democracy” into a complete and total joke.

Something tells me that if Webster was still around he’d say that the United States has been overthrown completely.
chakrakahn asked: Everything is Terrible is hard to describe, you kind of just have to check out the website. They make references to a lot of symbolism's in their films, but IMO I think they actually know what they are portraying, and make fun of it.

Protip: there is no such thing as "reverse racism"
“Reverse racism” - meaning an individual usually targeted by racism who is racist towards the dominant societal group - does not exist. It’s called racism. It doesn’t matter who is being racist. Racism is racism. Seriously people who say “reverse racism” make me want to smash my face through a plate glass window then choke to death on my own vomit. If you...

The case of Officer Adrian Schoolcraft is nothing short of insane. If you haven’t been reading about this, then you’re truly missing out.
This is one of the best articles I’ve read about it, but if you want the full view you have to read the Village Voice series that the article links to.
